This is nice. And part of the reason I'm willing to work on the site is to get other people to show me things they know. 
Thank you for that. And you did choose one with a carousel, so points for that. 

In my opinion that site basically looks professional because it looks busy. Not really my style. 

But I'm not who you need to convince. Get other people to buy in.  
And bear in mind you need to have a reason for any new feature you add. 
It needs to be part of the intent of the site. Features for features sake are not great. Stuff like this:

isn't what I'd call the highest priority. But if people want that - really, really - well OK. 

But bear in mind that although it's your site, it's my time and effort. You can have about half an hour a day. 
If you want a radical change, you can have one -- at the rate of half an hour a day. 

They say in the printing world: "There is speed, cost, and accuracy. Pick two." You don't have any money. 
So you can have cost (zero) and accuracy. But not speed:

So to recap: 
1. Get other people to support your idea for squeak.org
2. Choose things that fit into the aim of the site (which could also change). 
3. You do not have unlimited resources. Choose what matters. Or, don't. And be extremely patient. 

In Apple Notes I have a list called "squeak.org issues". Perhaps you could think of it as a self prioritizing stack. 

I like to think what I've said is Project Management 101.  

I don't want the bus factor for squeak.org to be 1 indefinitely. I'll work to change that. 
But not today.
